Abstract
A device for detecting ionizing radiation, the device including a main body provided with an internal cavity having axial symmetry around a central axis; a plurality of detection elements being structured to be placed at a respective electrical voltage difference with respect to the main body to generate a respective charge signal representative of an amount of electrical charge collected by the detection element, wherein the detection elements are arranged inside the internal cavity spatially separated from each other and in spatial sequence along the central axis, and wherein each detection element has axial symmetry around the central axis.
Claims11
A device for detecting ionizing radiation, said device comprising:
- a main body made of electrically conductive material provided with an internal cavity, said internal cavity having axial symmetry around a central axis;
- a plurality of detection elements made of electrically conductive material, each detection element being structured to be placed at a respective electrical voltage difference with respect to said main body to generate, independently from the remaining detection elements, a respective charge signal (CS) representative of an amount of electrical charge collected by said each detection element,
- wherein said detection elements are arranged inside said internal cavity spatially separated from each other and in spatial sequence along said central axis,
- and wherein each of said detection elements has axial symmetry around said central axis
